To celebrate Riverkeeper’s 50th Anniversary, the Empire State Building will be lit with our colors – deep blue, green, and light blue – throughout the evening of April 13.
New York Rangers Hall of Fame Goalie Mike Richter, Waterkeeper Alliance President Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., and Riverkeeper President Paul Gallay will “flip the switch” from the Empire State’s lobby to light the world-famous Empire State Building’s tower lights in our organization’s colors, along with a halo of gold to mark the half-century milestone.
Soaring 1,454 feet above Midtown Manhattan, the Empire State Building is called the “World’s Most Famous Building” and its observatory remains New York City’s top tourist attraction. With new investments in energy efficiency, infrastructure, public areas and amenities, the 85-year-old art deco skyscraper continues to shine as New York’s beacon of pride.
You are part of what makes us shine. So please be part of this proud moment: Take a photo of the Empire State Building tower with your cellphone and share it on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook with the hashtag #50onHudson.
